Medical Art Therapy is a term used when art therapists design art interventions and projects geared to relaxing, distracting and helping medical patients cope with illness. Through the art process, patients can become relaxed and mindful of the work they are doing to take a break from illness. Many hospitals and cancer institutes are now employing art therapists along with other complimentary therapies to keep patients mentally healthy. I have facilitated art and wellness groups for cancer patients as a volunteer for the Florida Hospital Cancer Institute in De Land, Florida in 2015.​More art and wellness for patients coming in 2016.Email me with any inquiries at bohnlaura1@gmail.com
